Everyday Epigenetics: Raw. Real. Relatable.
102. Mini Podcast - Oxidative Stress, The Hidden Driver of Fatigue, Aging, and Chronic Inflammation
Oxidative stress is happening in your body every single day, but when it builds faster than your body can manage it, it quietly drives fatigue, inflammation, brain fog, premature aging, immune dysfunction, and more.
In this mini episode of Everyday Epigenetics: Raw, Real, Relatable, Susan Robbins breaks down oxidative stress in a way that actually makes sense, and more importantly, shows you how to work with your biology instead of fighting it.
In this episode:
- What oxidative stress really is (and why Susan compares it to rust on a car)
- The most common lifestyle, environmental, and internal drivers behind it
- Early and advanced symptoms, from low energy and brain fog to inflammation, skin issues, mood changes, and slow healing
- Why “doing all the right things” can still leave oxidative stress unchecked
- How the six health types respond differently to oxidative stress, and what each one needs to restore balance
Susan walks through practical, real-world strategies tailored to Activators, Connectors, Guardians, Diplomats, Sensors, and Crusaders — covering nutrition, movement, stress recovery, detox support, mitochondrial health, and supplementation (without the influencer hype).
You’ll also hear universal practices that everyone can use to reduce oxidative load, protect cellular health, and support longevity, without extreme diets, overtraining, or perfection.
Oxidative stress is a normal part of life. But when it becomes excessive, it’s your body’s signal that something is out of balance, and that balance is absolutely something you can restore.
If you’re ready to understand your body better, personalize your health approach, and stop guessing, this episode is for you.
